Experienced in developing devices with active / passive signal converter & conditioning circuits and switching power control / driver circuits, implemented in either multi-chip & wire hybrid, or SMT CCA form factors.
Job Duties :
This requires a mastery of analog / mixed signal analysis and design to meet demanding device specifications, and to lead an interdisciplinary Engineering staff through the phases of product life cycle development from requirements, architecture, and detailed design, through to device verification, qualification, and the transition to manufacturing production & support. These product lines require continuous obsolescence review and at times may need redesign to support our military & aerospace customers.
- Develop clear requirements and specs from marketing / customer documents.
- Provide early customer interaction to guide requirements toward more realizable product.
- Distill large-scale designs down to their architectural elements, and develop unique, innovative analog and digital hardware design solutions. Consider & pursue patent application for differentiators that will help secure competitive advantage.
- Generate reports and present findings to the team throughout the review process. Facilitate DFM by coordinating teams of varied technical disciplines through a clearly defined design process. Co-ordinate technical reviews with other groups.
- Develop creative approaches that favorably optimize complex design tradeoffs for product cost, performance, feature set, time to market, and technical risk. Anticipate potential difficulties and develop alternative plans.
- Manage support and verification activities (thermal, electrical stress, worst-case, FMEA, tolerance, aging, and EMI analyses, performance simulations, and design verification) to ensure meeting all environmental requirements for the application.
- Develop project plans, budgets, schedules, and identify the resources to progress from market requirement through product release. Identify risks and develop contingency plans to mitigate schedule / technical threats to the program.
- Contribute technical input, as well as material and labor cost estimates in support of winning tactical business opportunities and proposals.
- Mentor, coach, and train engineers to facilitate greater levels of technical and professional achievement.
- Support legacy product lines and resolve new product issues as they arise.
- Work across departments to lead vendor or engineering outsource selection decisions based on technical performance, risk and cost tradeoffs.
- Take the initiative to investigate and propose new method, process, technique, tool, component, or technology improvements for quality, timeliness, and efficiency.
- Conduct in-depth technical interviews and make hiring recommendations for capable and talented technical staff to grow an effective Engineering team.
